Miami Marlins News & Updates

Janson Junk has secured the fifth starter spot in the Marlins' rotation, a decision that sees Braxton Garrett optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville. This move solidifies a rotation that will feature Sandy Alcantara, Eury Pérez, and Max Meyer in the opening series against the Rockies. However, the excitement is dampened by injuries to key players, as Kyle Stowers and Esteury Ruiz both exited early from split-squad games, leaving their statuses uncertain. With just days until Opening Day, the Marlins need to invigorate their fanbase amid a quiet spring filled with questions about the team’s depth. As they prepare to face the Astros, the focus shifts to how they can recover from these setbacks and set a positive tone for the upcoming season.
